Jobs Search

If you are in the market for a job or a change of one then there are a few things you need to know about applying for work through employment agencies - so far as fudging your resume and testimonials are concerned that is. The internet has made it very convenient for employers and employment agencies to scan and get your entire work experience as well as any comments made by your previous employer through special software.

The culprit and main key to all your employment records is your SSN or social security number. There is little that cannot be found about an individual if he or she has a social security number. And all this information can be gatherer in as little as 24 hours. This process is known as employee search through SSN.

If an employment agency conducts a search with your SSN then rest assured they will come up will all the information regarding your activities regarding employment. All the places you have worked, the kind of work you have been doing, employers references, and even all other employment agencies you have applied through presently or in the past. Many companies use this system to screen out undesired candidates by searching for undesirable work records or police records of the individual.

Now this can prove to be bad for the people who have been trotting on the wrong path but have firmly desired to improve their record. A search by SSN will definitely hamper their program and may even send them back to square one instead of giving them a chance - but who wants to take chances any way. This is the reason we have Employment searches using Social Security Numbers.

It must be borne in mind that employee search by social security number was devised to safeguard the interests of the company as a whole. It is also a way to protect the employees that are already working in the company from unscrupulous elements infiltrating the work space. This method was not devised to pry into the personal space of individuals but it does have its drawbacks. This is the reason that an individual must be informed prior to the search being conducted that there will be information personal in nature that may be exposed. It is up to the individual to accept or decline. Anonymous searches into the back ground of an individual is illegal.

However the safety of the applicant who consents to such a search must also be borne in mind. In an employment agency sees some record that is not very important theses companies must ensure that it does not hinder the employment process of the individual. Employment search by social security number is a necessary evil that must be carried out if the business interests of a company and the safety of the employees is to be safeguarded.
